MMA Fighter Has To Tell A Ref That He Choked Out His Opponent To Stop A Fight

This insane Bellator moment happened back in 2015, but it deserves some recognition since it’s going viral again this afternoon. Chad George put Mark Vorgeas in the Von Flue Choke, causing him to completely submit and pass out on the mat. Instead of overdoing it, George spoke up to the ref to say something along the lines of “Uh, hey — this guy is passed out. You gonna call the match now or what?”

The ultimate takeaway here is that the ref should be doing a better job at being a ref. How he wasn’t able to see that Vorgeas was choked out is pretty concerning.

All things considered, very Bro sportsmanship from Chad George.
